[Alex Bridgeman]

From ½ bottle. Moderately deep red, 80% opaque. Youthful nose; green and vibrant, ful our sour cherry. Surprisingly sweet entry given the way it semalls, neutral fruit and dry tannins. Closed on the palate, slightly unbalanced. Dry tannic aftertaste that leads firstly to a gentle curry and then dark chocolate finish. Needs more time to pick up the balance that comes with maturity. Guessed to be Vau '99. 84/100.
